What are the course aims and objectives?
Some seminars deal with taxation and some seminars deal with Accounting Standards. This seminar deals with both because you have to deal with both!
All businesses, be they companies, partnerships, sole traders or even LLPs have to prepare accounts, for presentation to the Inland Revenue, in accordance with General Accepted Accounting Practice GAAP. This means using the Accounting Standards.
Contained within the Accounting Standards there are often choices involving selection of accounting policies. Also, there is always scope for different interpretations in the accounting standards. This seminar will consider the acceptable choices and interpretations that will give your client a tax advantage.
Who should attend?
The content of the course is aimed at general practitioners who prepare company, partnership, LLP and/or sole trader accounts and regularly have to advise on the selection of accounting polices on revenue recognition. The course is suitable for partners, managers and qualified staff.
